My Iyashikei Game - Chapter 709

Over the past two days, Xiao He had seen endless ghosts. They were cruel, crazy, and toyed with humans. The scariest thing was the humans they killed would be infected by the negative emotions and become killers too. Seeing the changes in the people around her, Xiao He was in deep despair. She had considered ending her life but every time there would be an accident. Now she realized those might not be accidents but ‘coincidences’ created by her ‘patients’.

Lying on Uncle Ying’s bed, Xiao He saw the monster slowly consume Auntie Zhang’s body. Auntie Zhang normally cared about her appearance. Before she was gone, she winked at Xiao He, wishing her all the best. The farewell ended. Xiao He didn’t get a chance to say anything, and Auntie Zhang disappeared into the monster’s stomach. Auntie Zhang must have moved to protect Xiao He and Zai Zai. The old lady with terminal cancer spent her last days in front of the mirror putting on makeup before she died. Her heart was as pretty as her appearance.

Xiao He suddenly didn’t feel so scared. She hadn’t done anything wrong with these patients. She was one of the few nurses who really cared about her patients. Now, her patients were trying to protect her.

‘I wonder where the long corridor in the morgue leads. I remember Doctor Wang warning all of us from coming to the morgue.’

Soon, the morgue suddenly opened. More monsters crawled into the room. Their stomachs were biting many living people. ‘What are they doing?’ Xiao He looked through the gap. She noticed that all the people captured had the same property. They were all handsome, pretty, and had good physiques. ‘They are not patients. The monsters probably kidnapped them from elsewhere. The hospital is their lair, and they have been going around the city to capture these other humans!’ Xiao He believed that there was a very scary creature hiding at the hospital. This creature was different from the mindless ghosts. It could control and create monsters!

‘No wonder Uncle Ying didn’t lead me to the exit. If we had gone to the exit, we would have stumbled into the troop of monsters. These monsters are probably still patrolling the hospital.’ Xiao He was afraid, and she was worried about Uncle Ying. The elder was famed for his kindness and his willingness to help others. The fact that he had been helping people could cause him to be targeted by vicious monsters. At that moment, Xiao He heard the sound of Doctor Wang, and she had a bad feeling. “Old fart, I’ve let you be since you’ve once helped me in the past. But don’t blame me if you keep creating problems for me!”

“Wang Guiling! I was really blind in the past to help you comfort the patient’s family! You’re an animal! How could you steal organs from the patients?” Uncle Ying was loud like an angry lion.

“Scold me all you want. After I sacrifice your soul to God, you’ll forget everything and become an obedient dog. You’ll never face the pain of being human again.” There was the sound of skin tearing. Xiao He’s heart shook. She turned her head and looked out of the gap. Two nurses held Uncle Ying’s arms. Doctor Wang gouged out a long gash on Uncle Ying’s chest. Uncle Ying’s rotting organs were exposed.

“It doesn’t matter what kind of person you are before because  your body will rot after death.” Doctor Wang’s eyes glowed with excitement when he saw the internal organs. He touched Uncle Ying’s organs. “What’s the point of being a good person? Do you think I’d let you go because you’ve once helped me?” He held Uncle Ying’s heart. “I thought a good person’s heart would be red, but your heart is actually rotten too!”

“Wang Guiling, it doesn’t matter if I die. At least I’ve lived a guiltless life, unlike you! You were nervous when you were alive, and you can’t have peace after death! You deserve it!” Uncle Ying was not afraid. He was even smiling.

“Is that so?” Wang Guiling’s face darkened. “You’ve helped so many people in the past. But in your hour of need, who is there to save you?” Wang Guiling was about to crush Uncle Ying’s heart when he felt a bite on his calf. He lowered his head and saw Zai Zai biting his leg. Zai Zai only had one leg and one arm because of his bone cancer, but he was the first to rush to help.

“Zai Zai?” Uncle Ying’s expression changed, and concern pooled in her eyes. When the boy heard Uncle Ying call his name, he looked up and smiled. He didn’t fear Doctor Wang. This was the moment he felt truly alive.

“I should have amputated all four of your limbs!” Wang Guiling was furious. He stomped on Zai Zai’s head.

Xiao He couldn’t stand it anymore. She gripped her fists. When she pulled back the white cloth, all the white clothes in the morgue fell to the ground. All the dead patients sat up.

“Wh-what are you all doing?” Wang Guiling panicked. It was unclear who started it, but the patients rushed to attack Wang Guiling and the two nurses. They were pressed to the ground.

“How dare you resist when God is right underneath us?” Wang Guiling shouted. There was something hidden inside the two nurses. With a summon from Wang Guiling, their heads exploded and many butterflies flew out. The morgue shook. Blood spread on the ground like patterns on butterfly wings. The iron door of the morgue also started to close.

“Xiao He, you need to go! Run to the east side! The ghosts there have disappeared for some reason!” Uncle Ying worked with the other patients to push Xiao He out of the morgue. They stayed to stop the butterflies. Screams echoed inside the morgue. Xiao He knew she couldn’t save everyone on her own. She gritted her teeth and ran down the eastern corridor.

“There should be others outside the hospital. I need to go get help!” Xiao He ran as fast as she could. However, a monster jumped out of the nurse’s station when she passed by. Its stomach opened and tried to eat Xiao He.

“Come! I’m not afraid of you!” Xiao He looked around but couldn’t find any suitable weapons. When she turned around, the monster had landed on its limbs and was rapidly crawling towards her!

Xiao He bit her lips until they bled. The despair of the past two days exploded, and Xiao He charged at the monster with a scream. Before she reached the monster, a bloated arm reached out of the hospital sewer. A water ghost crawled out. The monster jumped on the water ghost. Xiao He used this opening to run past the monster and down the corridor. She had no idea where she was going, but she trusted Uncle Ying. The monster didn’t waste too much time on the water ghost. It was attracted by Xiao He’s living body and soon turned to chase after her again.

Their distance drew closer. Xiao He couldn’t shake the monster off. She panicked. Just as she was about to be caught up, a few more living humans came from the other end of the corridor. The leading man held a hilt and wore a black suit. When Xiao He saw the man, she was worried. The monsters targeted handsome living humans, so this man would be targeted.

“Run!” She shouted at the group of living humans. But then she saw something shocking. A giant creature over 5 meters tall crushed through the walls and rampaged through the corridor.

“What monster is that?”

“Don’t be scared. It’s my pet.” The man saw Xiao He, and he was shocked. “Why do you have the blessing of more than ten ghosts? Are you the daughter of the Ghost King?”

Xiao He had no idea what the man was talking about.

“No. The presence came from the tag around your ankle. This is a very rare unique item!” The man and monster came forward. His eyes didn’t even notice the monsters with the open stomach. He focused on Xiao He. “My name is Han Fei. I’m a member of the citizen rescue group. Can you tell me who gave you this tag on your ankle?”
